I for one, removed all of the grass, and as many roots as I could. I set one up before (a 16' pop up) on the grass with similar issues.
as far as the tool/
a shovel, heavy rake, and leaf rake, a few afternoons, and i was done.
I don't intend on taking mine down (I do live in fla, so our winter isn't that long) mainly because I don't want to have to pay for the water again, I would rather pay a few dollars in chemicals to keep it clean during the winter rather than go through all of the he!! in putting it back up!
just my 2 cents.
